Today Progressive Credit Union visited the Balbriggan youth service office on Georges Square to present them with a cheque for €2,000 sponsorship. The sponsorship will go towards the upkeep of their newly transformed premises on George’s Square and will also go towards sending a local young person onto level 2 of Albert Schweitzer Leadership for Life Programme, a national skill development programme.

The Balbriggan youth service has a number of other important programmes including, alternative learning, their CUIS project for dependent youths, and a volunteer led café with a social outlet for youths of Fingal and connections to other local clubs. We hope this donation will help them to continue providing these great services to the youth of the surrounding areas and we look forward to working together in the future.
